Well I have made the decision to sell my WRX and get a 2005 or 2006 STi. Yes insurance has been checked and is actually affordable for me. So looking at used cars I have seen most STi's in my price range with around 50k on the odometer.

I'm just wondering if this is too much. My WRX is at 51k. The STi would be my daily driver. I would not take the STi any farther than Stage 2. My job is driving around during the day but not very far just around town and I am not very lead footed.

I am just hoping with proper care and maintenance that an STi will be reliable even up to the higher miles. The same would go with my WRX, religious oil changes and following the Subaru service manual. Does this at all sound feasible?
